(yet another kernel question)

If I compile kernel version X on distro Y, would there be any 
compatibility problems if I took kernel X and used it to 
boot distro Z?  Besides modules, I'm guessing no, but I could 
be mistaken.  I'm downloading 2.2.17 for my Debian box right 
now (the memory problem one).  I am having some other problems 
with it, like "apt-get upgrade" is segfaulting on me.  I'm going 
to try a new kernel -- I'm hoping the segfault is related to 
the memory problem.  If there is a problem with compiling 
the kernel on this box, I may need to use another custom kernel 
from another box (hence the question).
